My creative flair was confirmed when I was accepted to dance for the Boston Ballet Company at 11 years of age. KVK Designs started with an idea and a pyrite wire wrapped necklace. "I have always been enamored by the art and craft of jewelry design, a skill that I learned through books and experimentation. My labor of love began in 1991 when I acquired a piece of Pyrite from New Mexico. Once in hand, I promptly turned it into my first unique necklace creation. It wasn't long before many of my friends and families were buying my creations; they loved wearing my original designs."
While working as the manager of a small gift boutique in 1995, I was wearing one of my original pieces. When my the owner of the shop approached me about where I got my unusual necklace, I told her that I had designed it. She liked it so much, that she wanted me to design more necklaces for her store, that is when I had my first official order, and started designing necklaces for her store. Later, I branched out on my own selling her necklaces to gift and clothing boutiques.
I launched KVK Designs (kvkdesigns.com) in the spring of 2000 to bring together my love of art and jewelry design to create jewelry pieces that are unique and beautifully made”.
